NOW, do the exact same thing to you pos and neg wires coming from your DC power pack. 

NOW, when you want to run DCC, flip the pos and neg toggle switches on for your DCC, BE SURE TO TURN OFF THE DC TOGGLE SWITCHES, you would do the same exact thing for your DC power pack if you want to run DC.

Deano thanks. It took me a couple times rereading but I finally understand. Me and electricity do not get along.

A question I have is what kind of toggle switch did you use? There are a million of them listed on websites. Also are you able to take a photo or two of the toggles?

Thanks
Tom
